Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill were back in the old routine yesterday, shooting the new series of the classic comedy ‘Still Game’ - the first for nine years.

Cameras rolled as Jack, Victor, Navid, Tam, Isa, Boabby and Winston got into costume at BBC Dumbarton studios next to the Lomondgate development - the show’s new home.

Ford, who plays Jack Jarvis, said the multi-million pound studio is “incredible”.

The series will also film around the streets of Glasgow during the six-week shoot, which is expected to air in autumn this year.

And the entire country will get the chance to see the new episodes at the same time, with the seventh series being given a UK-wide mainstream BBC1 slot, rather than a BBC2 repeat showing as in previous years.

The cast reunited in 2014 for an unprecedented run of live shows at the SSE Hydro.

Ford Kiernan said: “The BBC Dumbarton Studios are incredible and we’re super-chuffed to be back in the costumes and wigs again.”

Greg Hemphill, aka Victor McDade, said: “We were nervous at the beginning but after ten minutes we felt as though we’d never been away.”
